Problem (probably newbie) with install (openssl

Hi,

Please can someone help. I'm trying to install Ruby (1.8.3, just
downloaded), and it appears to compile and install just fine. But if I
do:

# find /usr/local/lib/ruby -name "*ssl*"
/usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/drb/ssl.rb
/usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/webrick/accesslog.rb
/usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/webrick/ssl.rb

I don't see the openssl extension. I have openssl installed (Suse 9.3,
both the openssl and the openssl-dev rpms), and nothing in "configure"
seems to be looking for openssl.

A co-worker, with 1.8.2, has /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/openssl (and
various subdirectories).

It's critical I have these (afaik), as I need to write a client to make
a secure connection.

The openssl package exists in the ruby source (under the ext
directory).

What am I missing?

Thanks,
Andrew

To clarify I did:
../configure
make
su
make install
as in the README.

Searching the archives I see a reference to "ruby extconf.rb", but that
doesn't seem to exist in 1.8.3...
